If you had a freeway billboard, what would it say.

One of the hardest lessons I ever had to learn is something that sounds so simple it may not even make sense. "If you do not take care of yourself you can not take care of others." Now I am sure alot of you are thinking that this is not true. I believe someone somewhere is thinking, "well I have forgotten to shower in days but my baby is fed, so you are wrong"  Now let me explain the saying so we can gain clearity because I am absolutely correct.  Sorry new mom, "If you do not take care of yourself you can not take care of others." If you don't take the time to feed yourself you would die so to some level you are taking care of yourself. And the better you take care of you, the more you have to give when it comes to taking care of others. I am guilty of forgetting to shower and feed myself while still making sure my babies were taken care of yes. But the level of care was not the same as when I had spent a few moments on myself making sure I was taken care of. So if I had a billboard it would say. "Take care of yourself first."

I parent differently from the norm, and I have been judged repeatedly because of it.

I parent differently from the norm, and I have been judged repeatedly because of it. My Parenting style has been talked about since I became a parent, it is very interesting that my girls are amazing, while the majority of my shit talkers messed their kids up! I feel for their children.

Needless to say, I parent my children in a way that many people don't understand. Throughout my life, I've often been labeled a bad mother. Let me set the record straight: I am an exceptional mother. I am blessed with amazing children whom I choose to parent differently from the norm. I haven't broken my children, (like how horses are broken) as is often the conventional approach, simply because it's easier. I'm referring to fear-based parenting—where commands are issued without explanation, where a child's beliefs are overshadowed by our own, where discussions are absent because a child's understanding is dismissed. If you didn't raise your children in this manner, then my words shouldn't sting. However, I believe many of you are familiar with individuals who subscribe to such parenting practices.

Girls are often conditioned to conform to societal expectations, while boys are pressured to adhere to a predetermined notion of masculinity. Neither are encouraged to embrace their true selves. I've raised my children to think independently and to comprehend that every action carries consequences. For instance, I've explained that while they technically could take that cookie, there are repercussions—such as a timeout or being deprived of further treats. They understand that their decisions have outcomes, rather than facing admonishment or physical punishment. Though I have resorted to spanking in extreme cases, it's never been my default approach. Instead, I've transformed every situation into a learning opportunity, engaging them in conversations as equals. I've validated their emotions and viewpoints, even when they weren't ideal, and provided alternative perspectives. I've fostered an environment of open communication and honesty, discouraging self-deprecation and uplifting them through praise.

As a result, I've raised daughters who possess a strong sense of self-worth, unafraid to voice their opinions. They won't succumb to the first boy who compliments them because they already know their intrinsic beauty. My daughters are resilient because I refused to break their spirits; they're assertive because I've continually nurtured their personal development, recognizing that self-growth is an ongoing journey. While I may still worry about them when it comes to dating—because what mother wouldn't—I take solace in knowing they're equipped to navigate relationships with strength and conviction. I can't help but feel sorry for any young man who underestimates their resolve.

The birth of Jenna Kat's Cave

artful craft has woven itself into the very fabric of my being. From the earliest of scribbles, to sketches of our beloved pets, to whimsical doodles in the margins of books, art has been my constant companion. My expressions have no bounds, no singular style; instead, I revel in the play of various mediums to bring forth my visions. Every piece I create is imbued with emotion, from the depths of despair to the heights of joy. As I paint, I seek not only to lose myself in the act but to imbue each creation with something that stirs the soul.

In the darkness of late 2022 and early 2023, my canvas became my refuge, my solace in the storm. The canvases piled up around me, and I gifted them to loved ones, never thinking of the potential to turn my hobby into a livelihood. But, as fate would have it, when my time of need came, I was led to the door of opportunity. With uncertainty looming, I set up an online shop, unsure of what the future held. But within two hours, my first customer arrived, and with each sale, my faith in the magic of creation grew.

The future is unknown, and the road ahead may be fraught with challenges, but I am filled with a sense of purpose and joy. With each stroke of the brush, I am taking steps towards a life of fulfillment, one that allows me to care for my family, revel in the antics of our feline friends, and share pieces of my soul with the world. Who knows what the future holds, but I am ready to embrace it, to continue sharing my creations with the world, and perhaps even pave the way for other artists to do the same.

Lyrics for, Creep By Radiohead

When you were here before Couldn't look you in the eye You're just like an angel Your skin makes me cry You float like a feather In a beautiful world I wish I was special You're so fuckin' special But I'm a creep I'm a weirdo What the hell am I doin' here? I don't belong here I don't care if it hurts I wanna have control I want a perfect body I want a perfect soul I want you to notice When I'm not around So fuckin' special I wish I was special But I'm a creep I'm a weirdo What the hell am I doin' here? I don't belong here She's running out the door (run) She's running out She run, run, run, run Run Whatever makes you happy Whatever you want You're so fuckin' special I wish I was special But I'm a creep I'm a weirdo What the hell am I doin' here? I don't belong here I don't belong here
